(*): WARC is, first and foremost, a community of scholars whose interests and enthusiasm help shape the programs and priorities of the center. We encourage researchers to become officially affiliated with WARC and to take advantage of the services and scholarly resources of the center. WARC affiliated scholars have preferential access to center facilities, including the WARC library, shared office space (as available), and personal mailboxes at WARC. Affiliated researchers may also inquire about renting private office space.
Researchers may request institutional affiliation with WARC by submitting a letter of request, along with the following information, to the WARC Director:
  • Name
  • Mailing Address
  • Email address
  • Home Institution
  • Discipline
  • Name of advisor (if applicable)
  • Brief description of research project
  • Place of research
  • Proposed dates of research
  • CV/Resume
  • 2 recent ID pictures

The affiliation fees per semester are listed below. Affiliation fees are due upon acceptance and should be made directly to WARC. In order to facilitate these transactions, we request that payment be in CFA, USD, Euro, or other currency serving as legal international tender. An affiliation card will be issued upon receipt of payment.

West African scholars/researchers ($50 US/25,000 CFA)
Researchers, faculty, and students who are based at or on the payroll of an African institution. This does NOT include US or European nationals who are on teaching programs (e.g., Fulbright) or sabbatical at West African universities.

Western/Northern scholars/researchers ($125 US/62,500 CFA)*
Researchers and students who are established at/affiliated with institutions based in the west/north (e.g., US or European universities, international organizations such as the UN). A West African national teaching at a US institution, for example, would fall into this category, as would a US citizen who is on a teaching Fulbright or sabbatical at a West African university.
*Current WARA members' rate: $75 US/37,500 CFA)

Please note: you are required to pay just $45, a non-refundable fee covering the processing of your application and preparation of official letter. This $45 fee can be applied to your affiliation once you finalize your research plans. Please send your payment of $45 to WARA at the address below. Thanks very much and best of luck on your (Fulbright) application!
